I watch this team and I want to say we are good. But then I think about how f’ing inconsistent we are minus the winning streak, that our PP underachieves, our goaltending is meh, and we seem to get shut down offensively more often than in recent years, and I come to the conclusion that we are slightly above average, and that’s it.

CBJ and WSH winning, NYI tied.

There are some nights I worry about this team keeping pace.

The All-Star Break killed whatever mo the team was rebuilding.

I so dislike ASBs, often for that reason.

This team just isn’t very good. The winning streak made us forget, but this team was been average all year.

You said it perfectly. The gross inconsistency that plagued this team from the Western Canada trip until the start of the win streak has come back and it's really frustrating.

Don't worry. Sullivan will reinforce that they just have to be hard to play against, get one right side of the puck, and be better, and the players understand that.

Not gonna lie: I'm really disappointed.

Letang said it himself last week (I think to someone from DKPS): they need to have playoff urgency now.

Any news on Geno?

This was an asinine loss for the Pens.

Slightly above average team that’s only 4 points out of first in the division. Luckily the rest of the metro is also only slightly above average.

This team could turn it on and run away with the division. Or they could also miss the playoffs. Should be fun?

The Pens were the better team through two periods imo. Still frustrating, of course.

I think we were outplayed most of the game. 23 shots on goal and only 5 in third period is not good. Maybe because of the new centers not really in sync yet. not
